Jayu started playing drums and percussion in middle school around the age of 12, which set him on a lifelong musical journey which has since included learning several other instruments as well as developing his skills as a singer. In 2020 he did his 200hr Hatha Yoga Teacher Training at Shoshoni Ashram and Yoga Retreat in Rollinsville, CO, fully diving into the spiritual practices and yogic lifestyle there. During this time John developed an even deeper understanding of the healing power of sound and music, and has since shifted his focus as a musician towards sharing that healing energy with others through sound baths and devotional singing.
